8. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or if the

appliance has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the

nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or

adjustment.

9. The manufacturer does not recommend the use of accessory

that a hot pad or trivet be placed under your appliance to prevent

possible damage to the surface.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY!

SHORT CORD PURPOSE

NOTE: A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury

resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Longer power-supply cords or extension cords are available

and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used: (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension

cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the product; (2)

the extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the

countertop or tabletop where it can unintentionally be pulled on or tripped

over by

children or pets.

POLARIZED PLUG

If this appliance is equipped with a

polarized plug

(one blade is wider than

the other), please follow the below instructions:

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit into a

polarized outlet only one way. If you are unable to fit the plug into the

electrical outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact

a qualified electrician. Never use the plug with an extension cord unless the

plug can be fully inserted into the extension cord. Do not alter the plug of

the product or any extension cord being used with this product. Do not

attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

 Ensure that the unit is unplugged from the electrical outlet and that the

parts are completely cool, before cleaning.

 When using your unit for the first time, you may notice some smoke and

odor. This is caused by the unit burning off the protective coating

applied during the manufacturing process. It is normal and harmless and

will go away with subsequent use. If the odor and smoke persist,

discontinue use of the product immediately and contact customer

service.

HOW TO USE

NOTE: Ensure that the Hot Dog Toaster is placed atop a stable, flat, heat-

resistant surface where the appliance won’t easily tip over or fall.

1. Ensure all parts are clean and thoroughly dry.

basket into the middle slot on the toaster.

3. Take two regular sized sets of hot dog buns, open them up and insert

them into the outer slots on the toaster.

4. Plug the power cord into a standard 120 V outlet.

5. Turn the knob to the desired heat setting.

6. Push the lever found on top of the selector knob down until it locks into

place to initiate the cooking process.

NOTE: If you wish to interrupt or cancel the cooking process,

simply press the “STOP” button found next to the selector knob.

7. The hot dog basket along with the buns will pop up when the cooking

process has ended.

8. Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet and allow it cool. Carefully

remove the hot dogs and buns using the tongs provided.

CAUTION: TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT ATTEMPT

TO REMOVE THE HOT DOGS OR HOT DOG BUNS WHILE THE

OUTLET.

9. After all parts have cooled, clean the toaster, hot dog basket, tongs,

and crumb tray. (See “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE” section for

instructions)

10. Dry all parts thoroughly before storing the unit. Store the unit in a cool

dry place.

TIPS

 Use only regular sized hot dogs and hot dog buns.

 DO NOT use Jumbo hot dogs or oversized buns as they will expand

while cooking and get stuck.

dogs used—some may require more time to cook.

 For better results, keep hot dogs and buns at room temperature before

cooking them in the toaster.

 Regularly clean the Hot Dog Basket and Crumb Tray.
